TÜRKİYE’DEKİ FİZYOTERAPİSTLERİN KARDİYOPULMONER RESÜSİTASYON BİLGİ DÜZEYLERİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’de çalışmakta olan fizyoterapistlerin Kardiyopulmoner Resüsitasyon (KPR) hakkındaki bilgi düzeylerini değerlendirmekti. Yöntem: Ağustos-Ekim 2021 tarihleri arasında yürütülen kesitsel bir araştırmadır. Çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 164’ü (%59,63) erkek, 111’i (%40,37) kadın olmak üzere toplam 275 fizyoterapiste online anket formu gönderilerek veriler toplandı. KPR bilgi düzeyini değerlendirmek amacıyla 2010 Amerikan Kalp Cemiyeti (AHA)-ERC KPR kılavuzu rehber alınarak hazırlanan anket toplam 26 sorudan oluşmakta ve kendi kendine uygulanmaktadır. Anketin ilk bölümünde kişisel bilgileri içeren 5 soru (yaş, cinsiyet, çalıştıkları kurum, çalışma süresi vb.); ikinci bölümde KPR eğitimi ve değerinin algılanmasına yönelik 12 soru , üçüncü bölümde ise KPR ile ilgili bilgi düzeylerini ölçmeyi hedefleyen 10 soru yer almaktadır. KPR bilgi puanında 0-5 puan aralığı düşük, 6-10 puan aralığı ise yüksek olarak değerlendirildi. Sonuçlar: En çok çalışılan kurum hastane (%41,50) ve çalışma alanı ise kas-iskelet sistemi (%37,80) idi. Herhangi bir yerde kardiyak arrest (KA) vakası ile karşılaşanların oranı %28,40 iken çalışma ortamında bu oran %20,70 idi. Katılımcıların çoğu (%67,30) KPR eğitimi almıştı ancak eğitim alanlar KPR uygulama konusunda %59,50’si eğitimi, %71,90’u da kendisini yetersiz buldu. Çalışma alanı, yaş, cinsiyet ve deneyim yılına göre KPR sertifikasına sahip olma durumu ilişkili değildi(p>0,05).Hastanede çalışanların KPR sertifikası sahip olma oranı üniversitede çalışanlara göre daha yüksekti(p=0,014).Teorik KPR bilgi puanı ortalaması 5±0,12 idi, bu sonuç KPR bilgi düzeylerinin düşük olduğunu gösterdi. KPR bilgi puanı; KPR eğitimi alanlarda almayanlara göre, KPR uygulamasında kendini yeterli görenlerde de yeterli görmeyenlere göre daha yüksekti(p=0,001). Tartışma: Sonuçlarımız fizyoterapistlerin çoğunluğunun, KPR sertifikasının olduğunu fakat KPR sertifikası olanların çoğunluğunun da KPR bilgi düzeylerinin yetersiz olduğunu ve kendilerini bu konuda yetersiz hissettiklerini göstermiştir. KPR uygulamasını daha iyi değerlendirmek isteyen gelecekteki araştırmalar fizyoterapistlerin gerçek KPR yeterliliğini teorik bir değerlendirmeden ziyade uygulamalı yöntemlerle değerlendirmelidir.

EVALUATION OF CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION KNOWLEDGE LEVELS OF PHYSIOTHERAPISTS IN TURKEY

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge level of physiotherapists working in Turkey about Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). Methods: It is a cross-sectional study conducted between August and October 2021. Data were collected by sending an online questionnaire form to a total of 275 physiotherapists, 164 (59.63%) male and 111 (40.37%) female, who agreed to participate in the study. In order to evaluate the level of CPR knowledge, the questionnaire prepared by taking the 2010 American Heart Association (AHA)-ERC CPR guideline as a guide, consists of 26 questions and is self-administered.In the first part of the questionnaire, 5 questions containing personal information (age, gender, institution of employment, duration of employment, etc.); in the second part, there are 12 questions on the perception of CPR training and its value, and in the third part, 10 questions aiming to measure the current knowledge level about CPR. In the CPR knowledge score, 0-5 points range was evaluated as low, 6-10 point range was evaluated as high. Results:The most work setting was the hospital (41.50%) and the main scope of work was the musculoskeletal system (37.80%). While the rate of those who encountered a CA case anywhere was 28.40%, this rate was 20.70% in the work setting. Most of the participants (67.30%) had received CPR training.While 59.50% of those who received training found the training incompetent in CPR practice, 71.90% found themselves. CPR certificate was not related to field of study, age, gender and years of experience (p>0.005). The rate of CPR certification among those working at the hospital was higher than those working at the university(p=0.014). The mean theoretical CPR knowledge score was 5±0.12, which showed that CPR knowledge levels were low.CPR knowledge score; It was higher in those who received CPR training than those who did not, and those who considered themselves competent in CPR practice compared to those who did not see it as sufficient (p=0.001). Conclusion:Our results showed that the majority of physiotherapists have CPR certification, but the majority of those with CPR certification have insufficient knowledge of CPR and feel incompotent in this regard.Future research that wishes to better evaluate the practice of CPR should evaluate physical therapists' actual CPR competence with hands-on methods rather than a theoretical assessment.
